Met local traditional food!
Yes, for this post and probably next post I’ll
be posting stuff from my lecture. They asked us, separating one class member to
be some group which consisting six people in it. We have to visit local
restaurant that present traditional cuisine from their owned place. In this
case, it should be Sundanese.
It such an honor for me to do this kind
of task because it basically what I love to do. post it in the internet as my diary
and giving people (who probably look at my blog) an inspiration.
In this first opportunity, we
visited “Nasi Bancakan”. Even I’m pure a sundanese but I don’t really
understand the meaning of that word as Sundanese language. But luckily we met
the founder of Nasi Bancakan. He He explained what the meaning of Bancakan was.
Bancakan means spending time with people you love or whoever might be in happy
ways. It should be eating some foods together. I thought it’s seems like
thanksgiving in western but Bancakan shouldn’t be in special time. We can do
that every time we want depends on the situation.
The founder of Nasi Bancakan named
Abah Barna. He reminded me of my grandfather who lived far away in my hometown.
He started his business on October 17th 2007. Beside this traditional
restaurant, there was a more modern restaurant which still owned by his family.
Basically they have family business which very cool.
